The right to education has been considered passport to citizens autonomy and human dignity, as well as sine qua non condition to the possibility of development and economic growth and social equity as a nation. A specific category of these citizens, however, has been denied this right to a quality education consistent with their socioeconomic and cultural reality . Such right has been expressed by the claims of popular movements of urban and rural areas. The classes and especially the peasants announce their indignation, demanding a particular look by the public authorities to their lack of education or acting with proposals as alternative projects in order to get a proper education to their goals . Then, the need for public policies to meet such claims are vital, but they should pay attention to the training and teaching practice of transformative mediator agents of education, the teachers. Building resumes and basic infrastructure will also be required to give conditions for offering appropriate education according to the reality of these people who have not yet been full-fledged citizens in society.
